I wouldn’t consider Outer Wilds a “once in a generation” game. I was a lack luster space shooter. Elden Ring is right on that edge, good, great even, but it’s difficulty limits the player base. But you’re just naming recent “GOTY” candidates. Of course those ones are good. You’ve named 3-5 games that are “good”. how many shit games come out that are absolute trash? For every Elden Ring there are 15 trash knockoffs on Steam. For every Outer Wilds, there is an “Anthem”. “just some of MY favorites”, again, you’re using YOUR bias to try and prove your point. I know many gamers who didn’t like Baldur’s Gate, Elden Ring, or Outer Wilds because they aren’t “multiplayer” in the way that say, Helldivers or Conan or Apex are. Throw enough shit at the wall and something’s going to stick. There’s a reason emulators are so big. Old games had a certain charm that makes them almost infinitely replayable. People today can pick up Super Mario Bros and have a ball. Mario 3 is one of the best games ever made. Super Metroid is a masterpiece. None of these games had to resort to “seasons” or “loot boxes”. They delivered full, complete games. Publishers today just bank on DLC and “games as a service” to make money instead of making a fun, complete game. I get bug fixes, sure. Games today are far more complex than they ever have been. Season passes, Battle passes, DLC, Loot boxes, skins, etc all drive at the point being made here. Modern gaming isn’t about the game its about how much the publisher can get into your wallet. THAT is why modern gaming sucks.

you’re defending the indefensible. Modern gaming is largely shit. games are boring, with little to no replay value other than “seasons”. Games are regularly released in total shit show conditions only to be patched later. Your argument of ‘we have so much more’ is a bad one as it doesn’t matter how many games we have available, if the large majority of them are garbage or in a garbage state. of course the more shit you throw at the wall, the more will eventually stick. Baldur’s Gate is a once in a generation game.

In other words: “Because I’m not bothered by X, neither should you be”.

Selective statistics.

you’re not, these people simply can’t comprehend not being handed everything on a fucking platter.

Fragile ego much? jfc.

ooo “blocked”.

it doesn’t make one “pro russia” if you don’t think sending BILLIONS of dollars to a foreign country is a great idea.

How is it not true? Damn near everyone I know that has a macbook uses it to cruise the internet and look fancy doing it.

@Sleepybear claimed the opposition used Beau’s death more than Biden did. I’m simply asking for something to back that up. If it’s happened, that’s not fine and I’ve said as such. BOTH sides using the death of a serviceman for political gain is fucking atrocious, don’t you agree? Or are you only ok with it when it’s one sided?

Yeah, it’s a fucking cesspool of ideological nonsense here.

How on earth can that be construed as a “Trumper” statement? He really does live rent free in your head, doesn’t he?

It’s no wonder your generation is seen as such a fucking waste if you think typing “go back to fucking reddit” is A.) a Trump biased statement and B.) that it constitutes “working overtime” in such pursuits. Start rubbing the two brain cells you have left in an attempt to create enough static electricity to fire the one neuron you have remaining.

tell me with a straight face your life is better off under Biden than 4 years ago. or 8 years ago under Obama. This “meme” is so fucking stupid acting like no republican did anything good, or that no democrat did anything bad. If you believe that you’re a fucking idiot that can’t be helped.

One instance, a rule doesn’t make.

Oh drag. Less ads about a shitty car brand. darn.

God, go back to fucking Reddit.

So I’m assuming you can’t provide any examples of such? It’s a serious question. ANYONE using it as a political tool is deplorable, I’ve honestly never seen the opposition leveraging Beau’s death against Biden. I’m genuinely curious.

Why would you assume that? I think it’s great that he’s using his money to improve others lives. Assumption is the mother of all fuck ups.
